Yellow Discharge From Pimple. Done Sebaceous Cyst Removal From Scrotum. Normal?
Hello, my fiancé had surgery to remove a sebacious cyst from his scrotum about 3 weeks ago. He has been healing rather well and the wound is closing up nicely. About 3 days ago, we noticed what looked like a pimple and then it disappeared within a few hours. Tonight, when I removed the dressing, I noticed some yellow liquid coming out of the place where the pimple looking thing was. This liquid is odorless. Should we be concerned of an infection or is it normal discharge? Thank you!!!

Hi,
Your fiancé has undergone for surgery of sebaceous cyst.
And it is healing.
There is yellow liquid discharge now and before that pimple like lesion was there.
I think , he is having mild infection.
Give him antibiotic orally for few weeks.
Apply neosporin powder for drying the lesion.
Savlon may be used to cleanse the lesion.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
